f

by wiggly jones, "the little hippie boy"

for previous poem in series, click here





who killed the flowers?
cried henry ford
as he passed the plate
and praised the lord

what is this sun
that dares not shine
when all i want
is what is mine

whose are these eyes
that laugh at me
when all i want
is to be free

must petals fall
when i walk by
must birds and bugs
avert their eyes



were curses rained
upon my name
when little bob
shot jesse james?

a cloud passed by
the poor man raved
a raindrop fell
on an undug grave


next
